Gastrointestinal tract of the horse.
Message: Have you ever wondered what you horses intestines really look like on the inside? This video shows really clearly just how complicated the intestinal tract of your horse is and why they are so susceptible to colic! Pay particular to the big structure called the caecum. This is particularly relevant for us in WA where we get a lot of sand colics. The caecum is where the sand gets lodged.... a very low sitting, blind ending sack! This is why it can sometimes be so difficult to shift such large volumes of sand.
